1995 honda civic EX blk coupe

131k miles
1.ok so when i drive sometime it feels like something is stopping the car and it only happens in the first two gears.
i take off and it makes a sputter noise and as soon as it goes away the car picks up.
2.abs light is on??
3.i don't think this car has its original motor?
4.the car was crashed before and they tried to put it back together the hood opens but to close it you have to push a wire on the latch that holds the hood, how do i fix this

5.DOes there need to be a hose connecting the valve cover to intake?

 

no it is'nt the original motor if it truely is an EX

that isn't from the crash its just a old cable ive had this happen just replace the cable or deal with it.

Need no as long as the intake hole is plugged and the valve cover has a breather (a mini air filter thing)

welcome to the forum.

 

glad to be here ok so i got the small air filter covered the hood wire is it hard to change.
and yea the title reads ex im pretty sure it is one.

 

Is the check engine light on?

 

i haven't changed my hood wire on my eg but i did on my ek and it was pretty easy

 

-------------------------------------

 

no check engine light just abs previous owner said abs light came on after crash to driver side corener they slightly fixed it i guess

 

ron would a little intake filter work as well or should i go with a hose? does it make a differnce?

 

A filter will clog and therefore requires maintenance whereas a hose basically doesn't.

 

ah now we are getting somewhere perfect thanks
